Re: overflow
Are you referring to the radiator overflow tank?
If so, on my 90 it comes out with maybe 2 screws.
Those tanks should be a dime a dozen in the salvage yards.
OR....
you could get this stuff.

Too true. And the rental fees increase as the night progresses.

Re: overflow
On the newer vans it's not even screws that hold it in. It's 2 little pop clips. You full up on the round button like centre of them and they release then you lift it out. Takes less than a minute. The washer fluid and overflow are one unit tho so you'll have to disconnect a bunch of hoses if you plan on taking it more than 6" from the van.crash wrote:like mentioned.. two screws.. 2 part plastic epoxy, mighty putty lol.. or wreckers .. probably get the wrecker one cheaper than the putty or the epoxy
